Although it was a small city in another world.
But in Grimm's perception, it wasn't much different from the human cities in the Wizard World. If there were any differences, it would be the strange facilities and strange buildings that were full of arcane style.
Smooth and wide streets, row upon row of shops, residents wearing brightly colored clothes, clean and beautiful environment, small open gardens and lawns everywhere …
It had to be said that among the dozens of different planes that Grimm had visited, the civilians of the Arcane Kingdom had the best living conditions and enjoyed the most benefits among the human branches.
Although there were no arcanists on the streets, the style and characteristics of the Arcane Kingdom were everywhere.
For example, there were tall street lamps along both sides of the street.
Even in the most extravagant and luxurious cities in the Wizard World, the light source used for the street lamps was cheap illumination stones. But here, there was an arcane crystal with excellent magic conductivity stored in the street lamps.
Arcane Fountain, Arcane Square, Arcane Garden, Arcane Library … Even in front of the shops, Grimm saw arcane puppets that were controlled by ordinary people carrying goods.
In the Wizard World, only wizards were qualified to own all-metal puppets that were worth hundreds of thousands of magic crystals!
Although the turbulence of the plane world inevitably affected this place, compared to other places, the people here were calm and collected. After all, with the protection of the Arcane Tower, even the ferocious monsters from the other world couldn't wreak havoc here.
At this place, Grimm took off his thick traveler's cloak and the gloomy hood, revealing his handsome face. He mingled with the crowd and looked around with a smile on his face.
There were not many people in the small city.
Even with the refugees who had been fleeing in the past six months, the total population was only about 50,000.
There were also well-equipped relief facilities in the city, so there were not many wandering and gathering refugees on the streets. The city was still in good order.
However, Grimm's all-encompassing spiritual perception told him that the two-headed Magus had already switched to Qiu Lisha's personality and had successfully infiltrated the refugee's gathering place. Wizard Holly and Witch Shani, on the other hand, were hiding in a noble villa less than 200 meters away from the Arcane Tower. They were peeking at the entrance of the Arcane Tower from afar.
This Arcane Tower was more than 60 meters tall, with nine floors above ground and two floors below ground. The entire tower was emitting a faint arcane glow. Even in the middle of the day, the entire Arcana Tower was still radiant and dazzling.
Through Grimm's powerful Elemental Vision, he could see that the Arcana Tower was connected to all the arcana facilities in the town. There were many hidden energy pipes connecting them to the Arcana Tower.
In other words, all the arcane facilities in the city were actually supported by the elemental pools in the arcane towers!
This kind of design and effort was naturally not a problem in times of peace. However, in the event of a war, these energy pipes would undoubtedly be a huge security risk for the Arcana Tower.
It seemed that those arcanists had been living in a comfortable environment for too long and had forgotten what danger was!
Grim could not help but shake his head and sigh.
…
Auspicious Peace Province, Fourth Arcana Tower.
"Tower Master, in view of the increasing number of refugees coming from the south, the capacity of Gold City has reached its limit. I think … we should send the refugees to a more northerly area for resettlement. " The speaker was one of the three third-level arcanists in the Fourth Arcana Tower, the young and promising Lionte.
He was a young man with stiff brown hair, and he was one of the current controllers of the Arcana Tower.
According to the basic configuration of the Arcane Kingdom, facilities like the Fourth Arcana Tower needed at least one fourth-level arcanist to oversee. However, as the battle outside the plane barrier became more and more intense, the manpower was getting more and more scarce. Therefore, after many transfers, there were only three third-level arcanists left in the Fourth Arcana Tower.
Some time ago, the invasion of the Other World's creatures in the south caused this place to be in a state of apprehension, and the atmosphere became tense.
Although those terrible creatures had not yet invaded such a deep place, the huge number of refugees that were driven had made it difficult for the cities of the Arcane Kingdom to continue. They had asked for help from the upper echelons of the Empire.
"Lionte, do you think that with the current situation of the Empire in a precarious situation, we can still organize a large-scale population migration?" The tower master was a grey-haired old man with a pair of old tortoiseshell glasses on the bridge of his nose. The wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, and he looked bitter, sad, and helpless. "Besides, people hiding in the city can also rely on arcane facilities and arcane towers to defend against the impact of the creatures of disaster. What if the team encounters those monsters when we organize the migration … "
Although he did not say the following words, several arcanists present could not help but imagine the scene, and then their faces were extremely ugly.
"Tower Master, in the astrological observation a few days ago, I found that there were some abnormal magic fluctuations on the west coast of the Kentos Continent. I'm very worried that those invaders from the other planes have sneaked in. So I suggest that we send an arcane observation team to investigate the situation. If the enemy really intends to invade there, we can also inform the Floating City of Auspicious View Garden in time to transfer the main forces there, so that Auspicious Peace Province will not be breached by the enemy like Marvel Blue Province, resulting in millions of civilian casualties … "This time it was the arcanist Soth who was the best at astrology in the fourth arcane tower.
And everything he said made the faces of several of his colleagues in the room more and more ugly.
"Marvel Blue Province has been breached by the enemy … It has become a battlefield of monsters and arcane puppets from the other world. If … if everything Soth said just now is true, I'm afraid … our Auspicious Peace Province is also in danger! "The tower master sighed.
"It's better not to jump to conclusions so early. After all, the plane world is in a violent turmoil, and it is possible that there is some disorder in the magic tide. So, we'd better send an observation team there as soon as possible to confirm it. "
"Since both of you think it is necessary, then send the thirteenth team there!"
"Agreed!"
"I agree as well!"
Just as the three Third Circle arcanists were discussing the current situation with serious expressions, an arcane crystal on the table in front of them suddenly turned red and flashed rapidly.
Warning … This was the alert message that the Arcane Tower had detected an emergency.
The old Tower Master's gaze sharpened as he pressed down on the arcane crystal. Immediately after, an urgent male voice rang out from within.
"Lord Douglas, Lord Douglas, bad news, bad news … The refugees are rebelling!"
Refugees? Rebelling?
These words came out of nowhere, causing the three Arcana Masters to be completely confused.
However, as long as there was no invasion from the other world, the situation couldn't be too bad.
The three arcanists immediately communicated with the arcanist on duty in the monitoring room, and soon they figured out the whole story.
Not knowing whether it was because of fear or because of food, violent conflicts broke out between the residents of the small city and the foreign refugees, which then caused a huge chaos.
The foreign refugees were extremely angry, and they were madly beating and looting shops and pedestrians along the streets. They seemed to be heading straight for the Arcana Tower.
"Bastards, these restless guys, don't they know how much war pressure the Arcane Kingdom is under? They … they actually came out at this time to cause trouble! "
"It seems that we need to deal with them in a more severe way. We need to drive them out of the city as soon as possible, we can't let them affect the confidence of the local residents and cause greater panic … "
"Let me go! I'll lead a team of arcane puppets and drive them all back! "
"Okay, let's act separately, we can't let them spread chaos to the whole city …"
Therefore, under the control and command of several arcanists, the gate of the Arcane Tower suddenly opened, and the transparent arcane barrier slowly disappeared after a few flashes. Teams of tall and powerful arcane puppets stepped out of the gate in a neat manner under the command of more than ten arcanists, and they entered the huge arcane square.
In the dark, the dark witch Shani and wizard Hori, who were waiting for an opportunity, received the witchcraft message from Grimm at the same time in their minds.
"Let's do it! Remember to destroy the Elemental Pool first … "
"Hehe, there must be a lot of good stuff in this Arcane Tower. It'll belong to whoever grabs it first, don't be greedy when the time comes … "Wizard Hori laughed strangely and rushed out without hesitation.
As for the nearby Witch Shaani, her figure suddenly disappeared, and no trace of her could be found.
Boom! There was an earth-shattering noise.
As soon as wizard Hori appeared in front of the Arcane Square, mysterious astral matter continuously gushed out from the void, turning into pieces of shining blue metal parts that were attached to his body.
Wizard Hori strode forward.
His body was getting taller and thicker as he walked.
In the end, when he strode in front of the group of arcane puppets, he had become a tall metal giant with a height of six meters, covered with thick and dense astral construction parts.
